Noncritical quadrature squeezing through spontaneous polarization symmetry breaking.
We discuss the possibility of generating noncritical quadrature squeezing by spontaneous polarization symmetry breaking. We first consider Type II frequency-degenerate optical parametric oscillators but discard them for a number of reasons. Then we propose a four-wave-mixing cavity, in which the polarization of the output mode is always linear but has an arbitrary orientation. We show that in s...
متن کاملQuadrature squeezing with ultrashort pulses in nonlinear-optical waveguides.
Using ultrashort laser pulses, we have observed quadrature squeezing and parametric gain in quasi-phase-matched KTiOPO(4) waveguides. Using a local oscillator pulse that is 2.5 times shorter than the squeezed pulse, we observed noise reduction of 12 +/- 1% below the shot-noise level. Parametric amplification and deamplification of a coherent seed pulse have also been observed, with no indicatio...
متن کاملContinuous-wave Optical Parametric Oscillators
Since the publication of an earlier review on optical parametric oscillators (OPOs) in 2000,1 there has been remarkable progress in the technological development and applications of OPO devices. Once considered an impractical approach for the generation of coherent radiation, OPOs have now been finally transformed into truly viable, state-of-the-art light sources capable of accessing difficult ...
متن کاملCooperative oscillation of nondegenerate transverse modes in an optical system: multimode operation in parametric oscillators.
We show experimentally that parametric interaction can induce a cooperative oscillation of non-simultaneously resonant transverse modes in an optical parametric oscillator. More generally, this effect is expected to occur in any spatially extended system subjected to boundary conditions where nonlinear wave mixing of two nonresonant spatial modes can generate a resonant oscillation.
